Aggregated hourly surface along-axis wind velocity, temperature and nitrate results for 2015-2019 from the SalishSeaCast hourly hindcast archive (https://salishsea.eos.ubc.ca/erddap/). This file is a companion asset to the following publication:
B. Moore-Maley and S. E. Allen: Wind-driven upwelling and surface nutrient delivery in a semi-enclosed coastal sea, Ocean Sci., 2022.
SalishSeaCast is a NEMO 3.6 configuration for the Salish Sea (https://salishsea-meopar-docs.readthedocs.io/). Along-axis wind velocity and wind stress are calculated from the Environment and Climate Change Canada HRDPS model (https://weather.gc.ca/grib/grib2_HRDPS_HR_e.html). This file has a companion software repository, which includes scripts to recreate the file (https://github.com/SalishSeaCast/SoG_upwelling_EOF_paper).
